French Quiche Lorraine - Umami Girl

September 25,2024

Quiche Lorraine is as classic as it gets, and we think that's a great thing. After much hemming and hawing and testing, our winning Quiche Lorraine recipe uses plenty of bacon and Gruyere, a low oven temperature to keep the filling tender, and a good-quality pre-made pie crust to keep this dish easy enough to make on a regular basis (or for a special occasion where you're making lots of other things, too)..
French quiche Lorraine is as classic as it gets. Our version uses a good-quality pre-made pie crust to make this dish more routinely achievable. It's generous with the bacon and Gruyere without being unreasonable. If you like you can bake it alongside our Quiche Florentine on the same rimmed baking sheet to serve a crowd and use up a two-pack of pie crusts. Quiche is even better the next day, so it's great to make in advance for a party or for a few nights' worth of dinners.
